January's always bitter But Lord this one beats all
The wind ain't quit for weeks now And the drifts are ten feet tall
I been all night drivin' heifers Closer in to lower ground
Then I spent the mornin' thinkin' 'Bout the ones the wolves pulled down
[2.]
Charlie Barton and his family Stopped today to say goodbye
He said the bank was takin' over The last few years were just too dry
And I promised that I'd 'mazing When they found a place in town
Then I spent a long time thinkin' 'Bout the ones the wolves pull down
[REFR:]
Lord please shine a light of hope On those of us who fall behind
And when we stumble in the snow Could you help us up while there's still time
[3.]
Well I don't mean to be complainin' Lord You've always seen me through
And I know you got your reasons For each and every thing you do
But tonight outside my window There's a lonesome mournful sound
And I just can't keep from thinkin' 'Bout the ones the wolves pull down

Oh Lord keep me from bein' The one wolves pull down
